Buy George Way Drum Sets at Drum Center of Portsmouth
If you’re looking for a true craftsman's drum, the George Way line of drum sets is just what you need. At the Drum Center of Portsmouth, we are excited to offer our customers the best products in the industry. The George H. Way Drums come from the brain of drumming legend Ronn Dunnett. They offer the coolest of looks, the best of sounds, and the finest of craftsmanship on the market.
Dunnett created the George H. Way line in honor of the latter’s legendary drum creations. Over 60 years after Way started his own drum company, Dunnett acquired Way’s trademarks. He began creating these vintage-inspired instruments with contemporary updates in honor of the late great’s legacy.
One of the best aspects about this line is the value. You get all the pleasing aesthetic and cool vibes without the price tag. All the George Way line’s products are affordable for the kind of quality you get. This includes the popular 4-ply Studio series and the Tuxedo set. This affordability was one of the key aspects to Dunnett’s plan—creating a line that was not only beautiful but accessible. After all, the best honor for Way would be to have these sets in houses and studios all over the world!
If you’re interested in the history, sound, and look of these stylish drums, call in or stop by the Drum Center of Portsmouth. You’re welcome to try out some of the drums we stock here. You also can check back regularly online to see what new updates we have to offer!
